If you use 2FA via google authenticator, WARNING (possible user error, app itself

it's very important that you take precautions in case your phone dies.

I had 2fa at bittrex using google authenticator. Didn't think too much about it, it was set up through my gmail address, figured if lost my phone or it broke that I would just use my google account to get set up on my next phone.

NOPE.

You should have a back up key. I thought I had it written down. I didn't.

I'm now locked out of my bittrex account for days...

so if you have google authenticator, spend the 3 minutes right now to have a plan when your phone craps out.
